No, I draw the line at eating experimental remnants. This was no easy task when I used to work on chick embryology and there would be a giant bucket of beat eggs next to me. I kept thinking massive omelette after every experiment. Most people lost their appetites for eggs. No me. There is a great story of the legendary Jewish neurobiologist Rita Levi-Montalcini (who won the Nobel prize for her discovery of Nerve Growth Factor) basically surviving World War II by eating these egg remnants while still doing experiments throughout. I admire that kind of spirit. It’s like having your experiment and eating it too.

Believe it or not, I knew who Rita Levi-Montalcini was. I did Academic Decathalon in high school, and somehow she was one of the people we had to learn about, even though the theme that year was “The Pacific Rim”. Go figure.

Maybe it’s not indiscriminate. Maybe the hand selects them on the basis of some less-obvious trait…something behavioral, like “tendency to cluster near The Hand”. Indeed, one might go so far as to postulate that it is in fact this very behavioral characteristic that doomed them before they were even extruded at that Peeps Factory.

It did look like the hand of god was killing indiscriminately. What I couldn’t figure out is where the selective advantage may lie for the Peeps. It would make more sense if the pink Peeps were less squishy or something like that.

Here we see the true nefariousness of UC. He tries to look all innocent with his “oh I’m only 10% evil”, but now we know he fools the people who make the evilness tests by hatching demonic schemes they never dreamed of:

Grinding up small defenseless animals! On purpose! In a lab! For money! *insert evil cackle here*

UC might be the most. diabolical. evah! We’d never know. He slips right under the radar.

Fortunately, we now know his secret weakness, his plaid kryptonite, the surest way to leave him defenselessly sobbing in his mouse guts: cute hedgehog pictures!

Plover, you’re killing me! Those hedgehogs are the cutest things ever! I have to admit a fondness for hedgehogs, partly because I did my PhD next door to the lab that discovered Sonic Hedgehog. No, not Sonic *the* Hedgehog, Sonic Hedgehog, the powerful morphogen homologous to Drosophila Hedgehog.

Look here “Dr.” Privilege, take your little murdering ways and those hedgehogs out of here. We don’t believe in killing baby mice for you to have some job that the tax payers of the US and Canada support. You got 3B! for that kind of shenanigans.

AIF, we cannot agree more. However, with Bushitler and Mitt the Twit on the rampage, it’s unlikely same sex marriage is going to remain in MA or other states.

Actually, if by “we” you mean “we here at the Republic of Dogs,” then I regret to inform you that WE DO, in fact, fully and enthusiastically endorse the grinding up of baby mice for science. Hell, grind up babies, if you want! Just keep the new and interesting medications coming, m’kay?

Res, he doesn’t make medications. His science doesn’t even come close to it. The only thing he does is make the debt go up every day by wasting your and Canadia’s tax dollars. And he slaughters little unpregnant mice because he sucks at science AND medicine! He’s such an emu.

UC is a murderer. AG is boycotting UC and his killing females and babies ways.
